Hi all! I have a problem installing Virtualbox 2.2.0 on Windows XP SP3.
When I upgraded from the previous version to 2.2.0 I noticed that I could no more use bridged networking, because Virtualbox couldn't use my ethernet card.
After some network tweaking on my host machine I tried to uninstall and reinstall Virtualbox 2.2.0, but in the middle of the installation, after I get two Windows Logo warning, the installation rolls back and interrupts. I guess it has something to do with Vbox network drivers. Can someone help me please?

Re: Installation problem
Ok, I solved the problem!
1) I reinstalled Virtualbox 2.1.4
2) I installed over it Virtualbox 2.2.0
3) The bridged networking wasn't working again; I repaired the 2.2.0 installation
now it's working fine
